Rollup merge of #26191 - jimblandy:master, r=steveklabnik

In the discussion of returning closures, it seems like the example code got simplified, but only the later copies got fixed. The final working code has `factory` returning `|x| x + num`, but the earlier code has `|x| vec.push(x)`.

The first form seemed to have more distracting characteristics, and the code wasn't right anyway, so I changed them to all use the second form, and updated the error messages.
